With regret, Brandeis University announced late yesterday, March 9, that all on-campus scheduled events that will gather more than 100 people this spring (through early May) will be canceled or postponed.
It is with our own regret—but with gratitude for the enormous alumni and community support we have had—that Hornstein’s 50th Anniversary Reunion & Celebration on May 3-4 will not take place.
The Hornstein Program celebrates its 50th anniversary this May 3 and 4 with a joyous gathering on the Brandeis campus—and we want you to celebrate with us!
From 12:00 p.m. on Sunday May 3 through 3:15 p.m. on Monday May 4, 50 years of Hornstein alumni, faculty, and other stars of Jewish communal thought and practice will gather to mark Hornstein’s contributions to 50 years of Jewish life. Along with networking and a banquet on Sunday evening May 3, we will gather for two days of discussion of the Jewish future and the role of Jewish professionals.
From our founding directors, Leon Jick z"l and Bernie Reisman z"l, the Hornstein Program—and, in particular, our alumni—has redefined and reshaped Jewish communities around the world.
Now, as the American and world Jewish communities ponder both our potential and fragility, we will convene to learn and to collaborate in meaningful ways about how we will craft a strong and enduring Jewish future.
